University of Ottawa’s School of Social Work Conference, in collaboration with CIÉRA–UQO.

Wednesday, November 21, 2018, from 7:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.

Céline Auclair, Executive Director of the First Peoples Innovation Centre, and Isaiah Coonishish, FabLab instructor, presented FabLab ONAKI.

FabLab ONAKI is a fabrication workshop, home to a collection of numerically‑controlled machine‑tools. At the heart of FabLab ONAKI are budding creators, artists, engineers and members of the public who use this space to create, innovate and experiment. The Fab Lab makes practice and experimentation central to learning, and is a place that values concrete intelligence.

The First Peoples Innovation Centre created this hands-on experimentation space to unlock the full creative potential of Indigenous youth.
